Kevin's Visit

Fred's dad came to visit us for the weekend. Last week he was in China for business and was able to come to Korea for a day and half before returning home. We picked him up at the airport on Friday after work. One of our Korean friends, Yumi, drove us. It was so nice of her to take us because we didn't have to worry about taking buses. Once we got back to Suji, around 11:30pm, we headed to Batman Bar. We met up with a bunch of our foreigner friends and then headed to a Noribong. A Noribong is a kareokee room. After being out for a few hours, we headed home.

On Saturday morning we took him to all of the Suji hotspots (school, our favorite Korean restaurant Tomato Place, Lotte Mart, etc.) and then headed into Seoul for the night. We went to Insa-dong, which is Seoul's art distict. Next we tried to get into Gyeongbukgung Palace, but it was closed when we arrived. We then headed to a tradational Korean tea house to warm up. We all enjoyed delicious tea and green tea chocolate. We decided to grab some Korean barbeque for dinner, then went to Itaewon for the Iran v. Korea soccer match. After watching the game, we headed to the airport. After seeing him off, we came home and slept for most of Sunday. It was a really fun weekend and I think he enjoyed his time. Maybe he will be back soon!
